You should have asked this question a few years ago when you could have bought gold for under $300 an ounce. Or even 2 years ago when you cold have done so for $550. Or one year ago when it was at $650. It never ceases to amaze me how people want to buy a commodity or stock AFTER the price has run up. People who do that are called lemmings. And we all know how lemmings end.
Opening an account with a commodities broker and purchasing contracts is indeed one way to do it, however it is risky and requires an in-depth knowledge of the futures market. You might want to consider opening a standard brokerage account with Scottrade or a similar discount broker and purchase the ETF that holds gold bullion, symbol: GLD. This is the easiest way to purchase gold, and much less risky than dealing with futures contracts. Just a thought, I hope it helped!
Best of luck!
